We assumed that the whole system did "something" not sure it was a whole power cycle based on what he told me. But after that glitch with the Xbox, the cameras knocked out and had to be recycled and the HDHomerun had to be reset on one of the apple TVs. Had I been up and watching TV or on the...
So not all great in out little network world.
Thursday evening when hubby was playing Xbox, he got knocked out with a no network (wireless 5Gh). It came back almost immediately according to him. However it knocked out our wired cameras, so he unplugged (power) and replugged it in. I was...
Well I didn't have to look and check any IP addresses prior to any reset last night or this morning because everything has been working nicely! WOOT! *knock on wood*
Let's hope this trend continues!!!
Don't have Smart Connect see up (read there is issues with that) 3 separate names. 2.4 devices connected to 2.4, apple TVs, iPhones, iPads, computers 5G 1, Xbox 5G 2
I thought unplugging (the electricity) was power cycling? If not... not sure what you mean.
5Ghz enabled. The devices I'm...
ANNNND cameras not working now. still showing up as connected with .5 but the app won't show the cameras remotely.
Unplugged NVR, replugged and now it is renamed .108 and working. the other 2 wired devices are still working.
a.m. UPDATE: cameras still connected. solar connected (at least it...
OK... so just finished setting up the Netgear. All three wired devices are working. they have IP 3, 4 & 5 Then started adding back the 5G wireless devices. All working! All the 2.4 appear to be working. *fingers crossed* that it all stays good!
That's the one we'll set up then! I'll update if it goes good (or if it goes bad). The good news is, thanks to Prime Day I got to call and get a price adjustment on the X6S which brought it down to $189.99.
Actually, I do have one more question before we start with a whole brand new set up:
Would you recommend we attempt our new set up with the old Asus 68U? or the new netgear X6S?
OR.... would you recommend we try one altogether different? (in which case we would hold off on resetting the one...
Sorry :( I tend to confuse my hubby a lot, too!
If our original router works, then we'll just keep using that one. Right now only the plugged in solar isn't working but I think that's the order we're plugging it in. We'll address that tonight.
We did plug in one at a time and test it when...
Two of the three were working (so I thought) at the time I posted. The third device (the solar) was showing not connected to the internet BUT it was updating output. So it was, I guess, connected. Once we got home and opened that page, the red line of "not connected" went away. So all three...
So some additional information:
Everything stayed connected all day after the reset we had done in the morning. However I started thinking that we had never done the hard reset on the original modem Asus RT-AC68P. (I thought the unplug/replug in was all that was needed at the time it started...
Hi! They are all 192.168.1.X
I didn't do a renew release. I just looked and can't find where to do it. We did disconnect all three of them before connecting them one at a time and making sure they worked at the time.
Our old Asus (I'm not home, but I think it was a 68P or U) died.
We did some quick research and decided on an Asus AC3100 based on a lot of good reviews we found.
It mostly worked good. My printer kept disconnecting and was a pain to get it restarted. But otherwise it was OK (just OK) for 3...
